There are several examples of evidence that support endosymbiosis theory. Mitochondria and chloroplasts contain their own small supply of DNA, which may be remnants of the genome the organelles had when they were independent aerobic bacteria.

JACKSON -- A 5-foot, 10-inch baby giraffe named Mika was born at Six Flags Great Adventure earlier this month, becoming the ninth giraffe in the park's Safari Off Road Adventure, park officials said Tuesday.
Garamba officially classifies its giraffes as a unique subspecies, the Congo giraffe, although that taxonomic designation is no longer favored by scientific consensus. Fennessy said the animals are members of a subspecies called the Kordofan giraffe, which also lives in Chad, Cameroon, and the Central African Republic. KÃ¼mpel said bringing in individuals from another Kordofan population could boost the Garamba giraffesâ genetic diversity. The Congoâs giraffes are not alone.
